It is the year 2056, not much is left of mankind. A nuclear war destroyed all civilisations on earth. The survivors are in desperate need of food. For food, even radiated, means at least short-term survival. Can your group of survivors outlive the other groups in the struggle for food and survival? Starvation is a quick boardgame that can be played with 2 to 5 players. Although the rules are simple the tactics are not. The game starts with a board with scattered food tokens. At the start all players take turn placing their survivor pieces on the board. After this the game starts. Each player first has to choose use up food to let his pieces survive or to give up his pieces. After that he is allowed to let his pieces move, taking with him a limited amount of food. The player with the last survivor on the board wins.
